It’s warm in Southern California, and that’s exactly the feeling Andy and Liz sought to maintain inside their new Tuscan-style home as they embarked on a modern interior makeover. After all, the couple had two small children and a dog to consider. Empty and austere simply wasn’t a good fit for the young family whose interests include photography, art and lots of Lego’s.
Andy, an engineer, became intrigued with Cantoni after driving past the Irvine location on his daily commute. It wasn’t long before he and Liz decided to venture into the Los Angeles showroom, and that’s where they met Bernadette. By all accounts, the trio made for great collaboration, and the project that began in February 2012 is still a work in progress today.
“We were impressed by Bernadette,” says Andy. “We liked her and her work, and she won us over.”
The project began with pictures sent and an in-home walk-through where measurements were taken. The couple knew they wanted furnishings for the living, dining and family rooms, as well as the media room and a study. They were open to art and accent pieces, and hoped to incorporate natural elements into the mix. Bernadette set to work.
“It was fun touring our LA showroom and listening to Liz and Andy discuss their likes and dislikes. One thing was for sure,” she adds, “the Laguna Sectional was going in their theater room even if we needed to knock out a wall!”
UpstairsPhase I of the job is complete (as you can see from the stunning images), but instead of parting ways, Andy and Liz decided to have Bernadette help re-imagine the master bedroom and kitchen, next. The ongoing nature of this project illustrates a trend we see with most of our clients: we build trusted, long-term relationships. It’s not about the transaction, but about great design, the design process, and the ability of our talented staff to help clients create the lifestyles they want.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option!

This whole-property landscape renovation in Normandy Estates, Littleton, Colorado, transformed an aging landscape into a cohesive collection of personalized outdoor living spaces. Designed around the homeowners’ lifestyle, entertaining needs and approximately $200,000 budget, the project connects the front entry, side yard, backyard, spa and garden areas while preserving the property’s mature trees and natural relationship with the adjacent open space.
Belgard Aspen Tumbled pavers create a consistent material palette across the new front patio, garage and street walkways, side patio, lower backyard patio and pathway to the recessed spa. Built into the hillside, the hot tub is surrounded by a retaining wall and layered plantings that provide privacy and make the spa feel naturally integrated into the landscape. A custom gas fire-pit area with a stone and flagstone seating wall, integrated lighting and a natural slab-stone stairway provides a welcoming destination for outdoor entertaining.
The planting design features drought-tolerant and deer-resistant trees, shrubs, ornamental grasses and perennials selected for seasonal color, texture and low-maintenance performance in Colorado’s climate. Existing mature trees were carefully protected, while dedicated drip-irrigation water wells, expanded irrigation zones and a new sprinkler control system support the long-term health of the landscape. A xeriscape area near the driveway, new landscape edging and fresh mulch complete the property’s polished appearance.
Behind the finished design, French-drain improvements provide effective landscape drainage, while custom outdoor lighting adds beauty, safety and nighttime ambiance throughout the property. Finishing details—including a custom mailbox and invisible dog fence—were personalized to the homeowners’ needs. The result is a professionally designed Littleton landscape that balances Colorado outdoor living, functionality and natural beauty across every part of the property.

The planting design features drought-tolerant and deer-resistant trees, shrubs, ornamental grasses and perennials selected for seasonal color, texture and low-maintenance performance in Colorado’s climate. Existing mature trees were carefully protected, while dedicated drip-irrigation water wells, expanded irrigation zones and a new sprinkler control system support the long-term health of the landscape. A xeriscape area near the driveway, new landscape edging and fresh mulch complete the property’s polished appearance.
Behind the finished design, French-drain improvements provide effective landscape drainage, while custom outdoor lighting adds beauty, safety and nighttime ambiance throughout the property. Finishing details—including a custom mailbox and invisible dog fence—were personalized to the homeowners’ needs. The result is a professionally designed Littleton landscape that balances Colorado outdoor living, functionality and natural beauty across every part of the property.
